智能手机使用的快速增长为行为健康护理打开了一个充满机遇的新世界。手机软件应用程序 (app) 可用于执行各种有用的任务，包括症状评估、心理教育、资源定位和治疗进度跟踪。智能手机最新的双向通信功能也为远程心理健康带来了新功能。然而，关于将智能手机和其他移动技术整合到护理中的信息非常少。在本文中，我们概述了智能手机在行为健康护理中的使用，并讨论了将移动技术融入临床实践的选择。我们还讨论了局限性、实际问题和建议。
The rapid growth in the use of smartphones has opened a new world of opportunities for use in behavioral health care.

The latest two-way communication functionality of smartphones also brings new capabilities for telemental health. There is very little information available, however, regarding the integration of smartphone and other mobile technology into care. In this paper, we provide an overview of smartphone use in behavioral health care and discuss options for integrating mobile technology into clinical practice.
